Easy Cadbury Mini Egg Blondies recipe. The perfect last minute dessert idea to make with your favourite Easter chocolates.
Long weekend! I am so ready to relax! Do you have any plans for the long weekend? My only plan for this weekend is to fully relax. Like, have a day where I don’t feel guilty about sleeping in and watching movies all day. So far, I have been doing a fairly good job with this. Waking up at 9:30 as opposed to my usual 6 AM start time. Getting caught up watching Netflix shows for the rest of the day…while correcting tests at the same time.
Hey, baby steps. I have enough tests to mark to last me a couple of episodes more. Maybe then I can truly relax.
Now how about Easter? What are you making? I haven’t any clue what we will be doing for Easter. Stores are closed today, and I am sure there will be no vegetables left when I try going shopping tomorrow. As for the main course? We still haven’t figured out what we feel like eating and/or making.
At least I have got dessert covered.
Please tell me that you have lots of mini eggs in your house. This is the time of the year that I look forward to the most. Mini egg season. Forget about jelly beans, give me all of the chocolate eggs. When I bought the mini eggs and told my fiance that I was going to bake with them, he got super offended. He told me that they are far too good to bake with, and that we should just snack on them throughout the week. Which, I know from experience, only means 2 days MAX.
Since I was the one who bought them, and I wanted to make these mini eggs last as long as possible, I decided to bake with them anyways.
And we can always buy more mini eggs, right?
Mini Egg Blondies Ingredients
These Easter blondies are just made with 8 ingredients, so there is no excuse NOT to make them. All you need is:
- salted butter – softened. Or unsalted butter + 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- brown sugar – either dark or light brown sugar works
- large eggs
- vanilla extract - or vanilla paste
- all purpose flour – or gluten free flour for a gluten free version
- baking powder
- cornstarch – to give them a softer, chewier texture
- Cadbury mini eggs – or any another Easter chocolate eggs
Equipment
Tips
Storage: Store these mini eggs blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. You can store them for longer in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Freezing. These blondie bars freeze very well! Just place the cooled mini egg bars in a freezer bag or wrapped in aluminum foil, and store in the freezer for up to 3 months.
Swap out the mini eggs. Don’t like mini Cadbury eggs? Swap them out for any other leftover Easter candy you may have. Alternatively, you can use chocolate chips. I personally love a mix of white chocolate chips and dark chocolate chips in these Easter egg blondies.
Line the square baking tin. While cooking spray works fine, it is a lot easier to extract the blondies if you like your pan with either aluminum foil or parchment paper.
